FOREIGN CORRESPONDENTS MUST BE ACCREDITED WITH YUGOSLAV ARMY
PODGORICA, Yugoslavia - The Yugoslav Second Army Command said on Thursday
that all foreign correspondents reporting from the territory of Yugoslavia
in war conditions must be accredited with the Yugoslav Army Press Centre in
Belgrade.
"Any other accreditation, obtained from any other republican or federal
authority, does not constitute a permit to work and report from war-affected
areas," the statement said.
The Second Army Command stressed that most entries by foreign correspondents
into Yugoslavia have been made through "semi-legal or illegal channels via
the Debeli Brijeg border crossing, which is why those correspondents have
not obtained valid accreditations."
According to information published in the media, there are about 350 foreign
correspondents, television cameramen and press photographers on the
territory of the Yugoslav republic of Montenegro.
The perceptibly increased presence of foreign correspondents in Montenegro,
according to the military authorities, is doubtless connected with the
activities of the Yugoslav Army and general developments on the war-affected
territory.
"For their personal protection and more efficacious professional work, the
correspondents, television cameramen and press photographers must be
accredited with the Yugoslav Army Press Centre in Belgrade, in line with
regulations defined with the declaration of a state of war on Yugoslav
territory," the statement said.
